Paris enchants couples at every turn with its romantic atmosphere. Stroll through the whimsical Montmarte, past authentic cafés and street artists sketching caricatures. Don’t miss the ‘Wall of I Love You’ in Jehan Rictus Square, where love is inscribed 311 times in 250 languages.

Activities for couples: Add a padlock to one of the 37 bridges crossing the Seine River, and enjoy a picnic in front of the Eiffel Tower. For a truly dreamy experience, venture to the garden of the Museum of Romantic Life.

With its idyllic beaches and resorts, Zanzibar offers many vacation packages for couples. After a restful day on the beach, get lost in Stone Town’s laidback alleyways.
